Server-side request forgery (ssrf) in Microsoft Office SharePoint allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
AnalysisAI
Server-side request forgery in Microsoft Office SharePoint enables low-privileged authenticated attackers to escalate privileges with no user interaction required, achieving high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The flaw (CWE-918) allows a legitimate but low-privilege account holder to forge server-side HTTP requests, likely reaching internal administrative interfaces or credential endpoints inaccessible from the network perimeter. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery) arises when a server-side application fetches a remote resource based on attacker-controlled input without validating the destination. In Microsoft Office SharePoint, this means the SharePoint application server can be induced to issue HTTP requests to internal back-end systems - bypassing network segmentation that would normally prevent direct attacker access to those targets. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H confirms the attack is fully network-reachable, requires only a low-privilege SharePoint account, imposes no complexity barrier, and requires no victim interaction. The high-impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) with S:U suggests the privilege escalation lands within SharePoint's own security domain rather than pivoting to a fully separate system, but the practical effect is full compromise of the SharePoint environment. Reported by secure@microsoft.com, indicating disclosure originated from Microsoft's own security team.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to apply the patch issued by Microsoft, detailed in the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-70324. Exact fixed version numbers are not present in the supplied intelligence data and must be confirmed directly from that advisory - do not rely on version numbers not independently sourced from Microsoft. While patching is pending, restrict SharePoint access to only explicitly trusted and necessary user accounts, reducing the pool of low-privilege accounts that could trigger the SSRF. Additionally, configure outbound network filtering on SharePoint servers to block requests to internal infrastructure ranges (RFC 1918 addresses, internal DNS names, cloud metadata endpoints such as 169.254.169.254), which directly limits what an SSRF exploit can reach - this is a meaningful compensating control with minimal operational impact on normal SharePoint functionality. Monitor SharePoint server outbound connection logs for anomalous requests to internal hosts.
